10 TV Shows You Should Stop Watching Before The Final Season

First airing in 2009, Dan Harmon’s ensemble cast sitcom has a total of six seasons. Set in a fictional community college in Colorado, the show is known for its pop-culture references, loveable characters and self-aware humour.

Within the first few seasons, the show garnered a bit of a cult following as well as several awards, including a Critics' Choice Award for Best Comedy Series in 2012. However, by Season Four, things started to go downhill.

Creator and showrunner Harmon was fired and his absence was clearly visible in the production of the fourth season. By the time he was re-hired for Season Five, all the signs were there that they should probably be wrapping things up.

Unfortunately, the joke had been made over and over again about shows always having “six seasons and a movie”, so in a way it was completely inevitable.

Yahoo! Screen came along and renewed the show for its sixth (and hopefully final) season. Audiences didn’t gel completely with the new characters, they missed Troy and Pierce and overall a lot of people agree that the whole season felt forced and lacked the charm of the show’s earlier seasons.

Season Six was a disappointing end to an otherwise great sitcom, and honestly you’re not missing much if you decide to tap out at the end of five and take that as your ending.
